World Champion!
Wowwww! Our loyal fans can be proud! I begin by telling you our amazing day yesterday.
15h Check the hotel yesterday: we are top crinquées for slalom ... Video review of the day we were ready. 15h to 17h: analysis of a long journey, punctuated by lengthy discussions with our coach JP. The course was not quite as we expected but ... it adapts easily.
First run: route still "clean", of course good start but we ran out the door number 9, after a cross on a big wave surfing as we cut little paper case too early. The gate 11 takes us a long way round but ... we do it anyway. So after the first round, we were satisfied but we knew we could do better ...
We really crinquées team and the second run was almost perfect! We made only two buttons for 5 seconds!! At the time, we were really fast: very near the gates everbearing red, no detour, we really knew we had done well!
After a moment of confusion, the results were not really clear, we knew! We are first in the slalom world!! First before the Slovak and Czech!! Canada, which defeated the Eastern slalom! Some officials have said that JP was really good! Not to mention the encouragement Boubou French, Boubou thank you!!
This victory rewarded us for our efforts in the slalom, for our team, for the dedication of our coach! What satisfaction! You can imagine the Canadians much exalted and screaming loudly!
It therefore goes to the medal ceremony! We were trying to guess our overall scoring, but hey, we did not know! On our arrival there, Bubu came to see us simply list overall with the results! WE ARE THE WORLD'S FIRST OVERALL!! ahead of Japan in second and third Czechs! It is our consistency in all events that allowed us to have this result! The first step of the podium, it's quite an honor! Wow wow wow
! Then the medal ceremony was the colors of canada:
-3e-3e sprint
-confrontation in the first slalom
first-place overall!
lot of medals but also a lot of really big trophies back to Quebec. So that our world has ended 2009. A big thank you firstly to Jean-Philippe Turcotte, our coach, for his time, his patience, his energy but also for his many skills and experiences that have allowed us to walk up to the title of world champion! Thank you to our sponsors, TEVA, Stohlquist, WRSI and NRS. thank you to our families and friends who continually support us in the completion of our biggest dream and we believe that the adventure will continue again ... Stay tuned!
